Using the exercise files

- In order to help bring the lesson to life,I've put together a collection of exercise files.Now with a real world commercial it would be difficultto give you all of the footage that was acquired.That's because we shot for two daysand you just don't wanna download that much footage.But I have pulled a few selects that'll help illustratesome of the challenges that we facedand things that we have to fix during post production.As such, you'll find a smaller subset of materialthat you could play with.Now, in some cases, I'm down sampling this footageto make it easier to get more clips to play with,but this will still give you a pretty good ideaof what it's like to come back from the fieldwith a lot of different stuff and what you do about it.

Now, remember, these are just hands on filesthat you could use for purposes of learning.My client was very generous.He's allowing us to use this materialfor educational purposes only.Please don't reuse this footage in any other projectsand please don't post anything online.This is strictly so that you can get some hands on practiceand learn more about what it takes to make a commercial.

Take a look behind the scenes at the production of a real-world television commercial. Learn what it takes to plan, shoot, edit, and deliver a public service announcement for delivery to broadcast and the web. In this course, author Rich Harrington takes an in-depth look at a real-world PSA that his company, RHED Pixel, made for a nonprofit client. The chapters mimic the stages of the project itself: preproduction (planning and design), production (shooting the scenes), and post (where the footage is edited, graded, and compressed for delivery). Each step is full of shortcuts for saving time and maximizing efficiency on set, and ideas you can use on your own commercials.
